Our Work

Become a Part of our Future

What will your town look like in 50 years? Maybe you are or your community is worried about the impact of strip malls; or preserving forests; perhaps your main concern is retaining the historic village character. Land use lies at the heart of these concerns and the issues that impact all of us – our quality of life, having the land we need to produce our food, clean air and water, and transportation options when fuel costs go through the roof. Smart growth addresses all of these and Smart Growth Vermont is here to work on state policy as well as work hand-in-hand with communities to address their specific concerns.
In spite of our uncertain economy, please take time today to become a member. As a member, you are the lifeblood of Smart Growth Vermont. You make on-the-ground community outreach possible and help supply Vermont’s cities and towns with the resources they need to retain their unique characters while planning for growth.
As we move into 2009, we will be working with communities on land use options to help address our energy crisis and continued legislative outreach to give our representatives solid information to develop state policy and provide innovative solutions to integrate new growth.
